My hobbies include, photography, painting in water colour acrylics and mixed media, gardening, sewing and making rag rugs.I love reading art history and quilting books, especially history and I love the old traditional styles in quilts. I am new to actually making quilts.
I teach art one afternoon a week to a community group and I am on the committee of our local art gallery which has a new exhibition each month, featuring artists from all over NZ.
My husband Mel and I live in the country and have two dogs, Bodger and Georgie and a cat called MaCavity. They are our kids now, since the real ones have flown the nest!!
I am so lucky as my wonderful husband loves to cook and grocery shop now he is retired, and lets me get on to do my creative stuff! We love to op shop, and scan through trade me for bargins, and visit the odd car boot sale.
Have really enjoyed being a member of this site, except when I am on here I am not doing all of the above!!!!!!
